I agree with you both. Alzheimers can't be diagnosed officially until an autopsy. And schizophrenia shows up on brain scans. But if and only if a schizophrenic can be taught to ignore the voices they will do better but still need meds. Anxiety and depression seem to also be biological as they run in families. but a really good therapist can help a person learn to deal with them better. And I know a lot of people only need an AD or antianxiety med for a short while there are those of us who seem to need a combination. I wish I could find the right combination and a good therapist. But a good therapist is hard to find. The last one i had said "Lucky Ducky" and I never saw him again. Fondly, Phillipa
